Matplotlib version issue on install

[Rachel Bowens-Rubin]

While running the python setup.py develop

command in the installation instructions, I’m running into an issue installing Matplotlib. I set up a conda environment using python 3.5 as per the instructions (“The main pyKLIP code is cross-compatible with both python2.7 and python3.5”). I’m getting the following error message: error: Setup script exited with

Beginning with Matplotlib 3.8, Python 3.9 or above is required.

You are using Python 3.5.6.

Would you recommend doing install using a newer version of python or a specific version of matplotlib?

You should use the latest version of python 3. I will update the instructions to clarify this. Thanks!

Updated the install docs for the first time in a long time… closing this. Re-open if you still have issues.

Awesome, thank you! This is where I was reading the suggestion to go with python 3.5 originally: https://pyklip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html

Docs were breaking.. so it took a while to update. should be changed now!
